WANDILE is well-known for his signature story-telling of the songs he writes whilst creating a deep listening atmosphere. With a unique stage presence, he has the ability to make you feel like something special is happening through his music. For Maturation , he kept a lot of his renowned raw sound, complimented by meaningful musical melodies at all times. He first wrote the music for the EP on software, then wrote the lyrics and afterwards recorded it with a full band to replace the virtual sounds with an organic, authentic sound. “For this EP, my hunger for growth and maturity in my sound were my two main inspirations. I really wanted to mix the classical music and jazz genres together to blend it into a meaningful, timeless sound for the music on the EP.” The EP comes after the release of his previous offerings, ‘HomeGrown EP’ and his acoustic album, Good Intentions. 2018 will see WANDILE release his first full length studio album ‘Kwakumnandi’ , this project will see the artist collaborate with Shekhinah & Bongeziwe Mabandla
